League of Legends eSports Tournaments 2019

As we jump into 2019, the start of 2017 brings a whole new year of opportunity for League of Legends teams and players to show off their skills. Of course, there is no better place to show off your skills than at a League of Legends eSports Tournament. If you’ve been following eSports for a while, then you’ll probably know there are plenty of tournaments throughout the year, but which exactly are worth watching?

With history waiting to be made let’s take a look at all the major upcoming League of Legends eSports Tournaments in 2019.

NA LCS Spring Split - January 2019

The 2019 All-Stars tournament might have just finished in December, but for all you League of Legends fans, you’ll be pleased to know there is another exciting tournament just around the corner.

Taking place in January is the annual NA LCS Spring Split tournament in which 10 North American teams battle it out to represent North America at the Mid-Season Invitational later on in the year.

Featuring popular teams from the North American region such as Cloud 9, Team SoloMid, Counter Logic Gaming and Echo Fox. The NA LCS Spring Split is a great event to watch all of your favourite NA teams battle it out for that number 1 spot.

EU LCS Spring Split - January 2019

In similar fashion to the NA LCS, the EU will also be holding an LCS Spring Split in Germany around the same time as the NA event. Featuring fan favourites such as Fnatic, G2 Esports, H2K-Gaming and Origen all the teams will be battling it out to represent Europe at the Mid-Season Invitational in May.

Mid-Season Invitational - May 2019

One of the biggest events of the year, the Mid-Season Invitational will see the top teams from NA, EU, KR, CN, Asia and the Wildcard Region battle it out to claim the top seed for their region at Worlds. With 4 places up for grabs, teams will be giving everything they have to secure their place in the biggest League of Legends tournament of the year.

With over 10 days of action, there are bound to be surprises, shocks and humiliating defeats. With coverage available for every match it should be a good indication of which team is the strongest heading into worlds.

World Championship - October 2019

It might seem like the World Championship has only just recently finished but don’t worry, the World Championships will be back before you know it!

With a prize pool of $5 million USD in previous years and over $1.8 million going to the winning team, Worlds is by far the most rewarding tournament of the year. Last year the event took place in China and toured around to several different venues. Although the venues haven’t been announced yet for 2019,we can still speculate!

If you only watch one tournament all year, then make sure you watch worlds.

All-Star - December 2019

Although 2019 has only just begun and the end of the year seems in the distant future, there is one event that will be on everyone’s minds; All-Star 2019.

The All-Star event is a unique League of Legends tournament in which the participants are decided by fans who vote for their favourite player from each region. The participants then play 1v1 matches to determine who is the winner and progress until there is one final champion.

Last year the event took place in Los Angeles from the 7th to 10th of December. So far not a lot of details have been released about the 2019event. All we know for sure is that it’s likely to take place in December and voting is expected to start in November. Be sure to watch out for any new information regarding the event on the official League of Legends website.
